    A friend's son did just that. He's 25 and still competing.

    • Tyreek Hill is a full-time NFL player...If the former top high school sprinter concentrated solely on track those times would surely go down...

          V-e-r-y i-n-t-e-r-e-s-t-i-n-g!
          She's been a bit of a mystery girl/woman, and hearing her talking about herself and her experiences gives insight into why she is who she is. She was on fumes in Eugene, due to her interrupted training, and beat Keely on sheer will. She was kinda flaky in her racing in HS, but certainly learned some tough lessons.
          I do believe that Kersee WILL take her to another level, and I loved that she appreciates Keely's rivalry.

            Thanks for posting GM, she really handled the nontrack questions from this popular nontrack podcast. Great to see her give props to Madeline Manning Mims. Love how she handled inspiration question by sharing she's not much of track fan. The reaction from the NFLers is hilarious. ​Her comments on her DM's being from "old men" is pretty "TandF News"ish....

              and Letsrun has the scoop on D Brazier

              He took time off and got an MRI in January [2023] that showed some inflammation where the surgery had taken place. When a follow-up MRI six weeks later showed no progress, Brazier flew back to Denver in February for his third surgery in the last 20 months to clean out some scar tissue. . . . .
              “My Achilles is looking great from the [initial] surgery by the sounds of it, but that bone back there just isn’t quite healing the way it should be,” Brazier says, noting that he is not a medical expert and generally leaves the details to his doctors. “…Hopefully [the second surgery is] going to relieve some of that pressure and allow that bone to fully recover back there.”
              Brazier still isn’t running right now, making this the longest he’s gone during his professional career without any running training. He is hoping to return to running within a month, but he’s not locked in to a timeline and says his number one goal in 2023 is to get back to being 100% healthy.

              I don't see how he could make the team this year . . . but Paris, next?

                    So 'street' events? I don't see a track there.

                      They'll have a 150m straight and will run longer stuff on streets.

                        As a casual fan, I like it a lot; as a stat-dude, less. Still . . . a 60/40 +.
                        I'm dubious it 'recruits' fans to 'real' meets. The PR/good-will is the saving point.

                        • Any word on Steiner opening outdoors? She seems to have become the runner I am most interested in following.

                          (Do we need/want a separate thread for plans and announcements and keep one strictly for results? Or am I overthinking again?)

                            They are getting the gold medal 4x1 band from Eugene back together in Austin next week. Slight order tweak - Prandini and Jefferson swapping spots(subject to change of course lol).

                            • Steeplechaser Hillary Bor stepped off the track and onto the roads today and took down a very old AR in the men's 10 miles with a 46:11 to win the USATF title at the Cherry Blossom race in DC.

                              Sara Hall won the women's title.
